Is Joe Biden a racist and if so why do you hold that position?

[John_Galt]

well I don’t like to throw around the word “racist”, Because Of how badly people mis use the word now. But I do believe that joe Biden thinks very poorly of black people.

first of course if the famous “you ain’t black” statement. A black man tells you that he has more questions to ask you, before he can endorse you... and you tell him that “if he doesn’t already know that he’s voting for you, then he ain’t black”.
to believe that all black People believe the exact same thing or that they all think exactly the same way, and that if they believe something different, think in a different way or choose to vote for someone different... “then they aren’t even truly a black person”!!!
That is beyond insulting... an old rich white guy, is going to tell a young black man that he isn’t black or that he doesn’t have those life experiences, if he doesn’t vote for him? he’s basically saying that being black is defined by how you vote.
yes... us rich white liberals, we will decide and let you know if your a “real” black person or not. Poor thing... there is just no way for you to decide that for yourself, we will look at what your political ideology is and then tell you if your black or not!

then there is the ridiculous pandering he did with Cardi B. When Joe Biden decided that he needed to reach out to the black vote... what did he do? Did he meet with great black leaders? Did he met with black intellectuals? Did he get on tv and explain his plans for improving the black community? No... he does an interview with Cardi B. LoL why? Because in his mind, that’s what black people are like. that’s his opinion of black people... Cardi B.

then there Is the famous KKK member’s funeral that joe Biden spoke at... that’s never a good look!

Then there is the crime bills that he help write in the 90’s... that targeted black men very heavily! again, not a great look.

I don’t know the man’s heart... I have no idea how he truly feels but he certainly doesn’t seem to have a high opinion of black people.

Not really, but I do believe he was culturally influenced during the 70s when racism was still pretty rampant. Also, his comment stating that you aren’t black if you don’t vote for me seems wildly inappropriate. He’s had a freudian slip that caught my attention as well. “Poor kids are just as smart as white kids.” Something along the lines of that. I don’t believe that he actually feels superior towards black people specifically. I just can’t stand the fact that they act as if Biden is just so perfect never making a politically incorrect comment. It’s hypocrisy and quite annoying to see on such a consistent basis. I can’t stand the race baiting. Calling Amy Coney Barret a white supremacist for adopting two black children is what really just made me realize that these people are entirely irrational and not able to be reasoned with.

I feel he's tryna makeup for stuff he said in the past. I don't know if he's racist but i def dont trust him or any politician really

[israelisevil]

he's not racist but kamala harris is a prosecutor thats worse then cops they put people who can't afford bail in jail during trial wich makes trial more difficult and presses them take plea admit what they didn't do. She also puts people who can't afford good lawyers only get public defenders in jail who are innocent. She convicted 93 percent of people she went against in court. Prosecutors show lack of morals and lack of care for individuals. But what you gunna do nothing changes. Gun laws they want do dont effect me trump tried ban bump stocks and bump end pins on glocks. I still got a bump on my Glock 17 idgaf about those pussy ass governmentals. id rather kill a pressident then be a president

No, I don't think he's racist. I think he's made decisions that weren't beneficial to blacks, such as being in favor of the 1994 crime bill and being against racial integration at one point, but I don't think he's racist. Although his comments such as the whole "you ain't black", "poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids", and so on are giving political opponents ammo to try to paint him as racist. I don't agree with them as I chalk it up to poor word choice but I can definitely see why those comments came out as racist to some people. Overall he isn't racist in my opinion but I definitely think there's more he can do to bridge the racial divide.

Pubically, no. Secretly, probably. Joe Biden like Trump come from a era where it was common and acceptable to be a racist openly among friends, family and co-workers.
